two for one night

(Still thinking of you, magda. there's a hello, heartfelt, in the comments below). Brideshead Revisited isn't fully downloaded, so refuses to play - it skips from the opening voice over to the end credits of the first episode, which is hardly satisfying. So, amongst the downloaded selection du jour, Igby Goes Down it is - Catcher in the Rye, barely updated, but with Claire Danes, which is a happy and a sad thing at the same time. Anyway, early on dialogue, talking about how failures serve as an example to us all (which, by the way, Plato and Boethius would both disagree with), the older brother comments, "Such as our father. Slippery when Schizophrenic." Priceless. I really must get around to writing a monumental tortured angsty teen/20s story/novel/film before I lose the angst or any claim to remembering what it's all about, beyond putting the left foot in and taking it out or somethingorrather.
